Gonatista grisea, common name Grizzled Mantis or Lichen Mimic, is a species of praying mantis native to the Southern United States. According to one enthusiast they are:

...possibly the most exotic-looking native American species...From tree-branch brown, to bone-white, to camo-army green, to lichen-mimic green, the potential coloration pattern of this species is remarkable. [1]
